Disabled

I wrote this poem about a character from a series I enjoy.

To them I am the worthless one.

Between the two if us, my brother has

always won.

He's better at being an earl,

Where as me, I just cough and hurl.

Why didn't he get a weak constitution?

If I was the healthier one, everyone would accept me as his substitution.

Why do I feel like they always forget about me?

Why do they put me in my bed and leave me be?

I wish I was healthy like him,

I wish I didn't feel like his useless limb.

Someday I'll prove them wrong.

One day I'll become the one that's strong.
